The big picture of the season is in the guide Fashion Trends Fall/Winter 2026/27.

Which jackets are in demand in 2026?

These jacket types are said to be in demand this year:

Bouclé jacket. The looped surface adds texture to an outfit.
Check jacket. Check is often seen this season, frequently as a shirt jacket.
Oversize jacket and blouson. Volume and short lengths are said to be a trend.
Trench coat and windbreaker. Light jackets for days between the seasons.
Quilted jacket and puffer jacket. Quilted winter jackets in muted colors.

Bouclé jacket: texture in the fabric

Bouclé is said to be one of the fabrics of the season. The surface of small loops looks lively even in a single color. That is why the outfit underneath does not have to do much: a white top, light jeans, done. If you prefer something warmer, add a knit sweater in black or cream. The bouclé jacket with zip in gray has a stand collar.

With jeans. Bouclé jacket in gray, white top, light jeans, brown boots.
With wide-leg pants. Bouclé jacket, black knit sweater, cargo pants in khaki.

A selection is available under bouclé jackets.

Check jacket: shirt jacket and oversize check

Check is one of the patterns of the season. The check shirt jacket worn open over a top is especially common. The pattern combines well with plain pieces in a color taken from the check. If the check contains brown and cream, those two tones are an easy choice for the top and pants. The oversize check jacket in brown has a large collar.

Everyday. Check jacket in brown, plain top in cream, light jeans, boots.
With a skirt. Check shirt jacket open over a black skirt and a plain top.

You will find more combinations in the guide How to Wear a Check Jacket.

Blouson and oversize jacket: short and voluminous

The blouson is seen as a transitional jacket with volume. It ends short and usually has a band at the hem. The oversized blouson jacket in camel has contrast piping. With wide-leg pants, the top underneath stays calm. Camel goes with black, white, gray and navy, which makes the blouson an easy way into the trend.

With black. Blouson in camel, black long-sleeve top, black pants.
With jeans. Blouson, white T-shirt, straight jeans, sneakers or boots.

More ideas are in the guide How to Wear a Blouson Jacket.

Trench coat and windbreaker: light jackets for the transition

The trench coat is a classic and comes back every season. In beige it goes with almost every color. The windbreaker is the sporty version, which can be worn with jeans, knitwear and boots. The windbreaker jacket in khaki has a zip and contrast piping.

How to wear the trench coat is shown in the guide How to Wear a Trench Coat.

Quilted jacket and puffer jacket: winter jackets in muted colors

Quilted jackets are another trend of the cold season. The shop lists the puffer jacket in taupe and brown among the winter jackets. Muted earth tones combine well with knitwear and boots. A quilted jacket in taupe goes with black, cream and brown, one in brown with beige, khaki and gray. Teddy fabric also appears in season reports as a soft texture.

An overview is available under winter jackets.

Transitional jacket or winter jacket: what is the difference?

Transitional jackets are meant for mild days, winter jackets for cold days. The shop has both categories, and some styles appear in both. If you want to wear a jacket over knitwear, take a look at the description of the individual style. You will find more in the guide Transitional Jackets for Women. The styles are under transitional jackets.

How to wear a jacket trend in everyday life

You do not have to replace your whole wardrobe. One jacket is usually enough:

One jacket as the centerpiece. Texture or pattern comes from the jacket, everything underneath stays simple.
Colors from your wardrobe. Gray, camel, brown, khaki and beige can be mixed with each other.
Boots or ankle boots. Boots and ankle boots go with almost every jacket type this season.
